Which "cow town": Port Lavaca, Texas or Vacaville, California?

Port Lavaca. I prefer TX over CA.

Ft. Myers, FL or Oxnard, CA?

Ft. Myers. Love the Gulf Coast, and it's closer to family.

Norfolk, VA, or Wilmington, NC?

Socorro, NM or Montgomery, WV?

Pueblo, CO. Topeka was not very good. I might consider Wichita. Colorado is more progressive imo.

Manchester, NH or Huntsville, AL?

Manchester... Huntsville seems like a decent place to live in the deep south but Manchester is a better cultural fit for me and I like its relative proximity to Boston for jobs/amenities.

Silver Spring, MD or West Orange, NJ?

[Penna76]

West Orange, NJ without a doubt.

I love DC, but its suburbs are getting to NYC/North New Jersey prices for Real Estate.

And I rather live close to NYC (40 minute train ride) than DC. There are far more things to do in the NYC metro and more opportunities.

Parts of North Jersey are definitely gritty, but many towns have charm, including West Orange.


West Chester, PA or Manassas, VA?

Manassas. As much as I dislike metro DC, Manassas is far enough removed that it would be possible to basically ignore DC. I prefer it over West Chester because it's more spread out and green. The housing stock in West Chester is not conducive for a large family like mine.

Manchester, New Hampshire or Manchester-by-the-Sea, Massachusetts?

Manchester, New Hampshire or Manchester-by-the-Sea, Massachusetts?

Manchester NH. Reno NV or Atlantic City NJ?

[Penna76]

Manchester, NH

The only thing I dislike about that area, are the long winters, but it is close to some NH beaches and Boston, which make it attractive.

Reno is a little underrated with proximity to Lake Tahoe, but I prefer to be a bit closer to the coast.

Atlantic City is blah. It does have very attractive beach towns just south of it though (Ocean City, Avalon, Stone Harbor), that are very desirable, but full time living can be a bit too quiet for me in the winter/late fall/early spring.


Roanoke, VA or Syracuse, NY?
